Language Arts CLEAR Curriculum
 
CLEAR—Clarifying Learning to Enhance achievement Results—is an instructional planning tool for teachers. It clarifies what is to be taught and assessed and encompasses all state curriculum requirements. It enables teachers to focus their planning time and professional conversations on how best to teach the knowledge and skills so that all students master the objectives.

The English Language Arts CLEAR document contains four strands: listening and speaking, reading, writing, and viewing and representing. Within each strand are goals, objectives, and content specifications. Many skills and concepts recur throughout the strands and indicate instruction is intended to be delivered as an integrated English Language Arts curriculum.
